When ROMANCE turns into a HORROR ACT!

I suppose I am in the minority...of a minority that was left behind after a huge exodus months back.😳

I don't know if it is yet time to bid adieu. I may just not...🤔😭

But I can't help wonder. I think almost everyone in this forum has been screaming for the show to get shut for the past four five months...with a sensible ending that is...I said almost'...

I have personally shouted enough is enough' quite a few times. My patience was stretched thin...I think Humsafars sustained me...and QH returned the favour just as Humsafars closed down...

So, what happens when one actor stands up and decides to call it a day! 👏 The Maker finally believes in the character being greater than the actor'- One lesson she learned the hard way.😉 Purely because she has no other way.

And the announcement to quit brings a rare sight into the QH sets😲..that of Gul...after months...😉and another rare item to the F32- mention of another actor who had left ages ago..😆a sweet reminder courtesy of our beloved Forum 32.

My mind goes back to the times we were reminded of..where an actor stepped in to replace another- he was every measure as good as the other. Yet the story raced to a happy ending'- a love story murdered to bring in another. It took another actor of equal calibre to pull up the numbers...until the inevitable rot set in (I mean in the script writing)...and there were pleas from the very fans to shut it down soon.

Enter the Leap...another season..and another actor...whose worth I am not measuring or mentioning...the story has been stretched much too far..the makers have deafened their ears...Finally the Lead shows the way...I guess that is why he is called the lead..👏.I wonder if I should follow or wait for the replacement..who has to be brought in the guise of a different name...I guess to con the audience until it is time to unravel him as the one who has replaced the lead...what an applaudable tactic! 🥱

I watch Aahil...and I want to cry for the actor in KV...such gross underutilisation...such poor storytelling...💔

Yet I stick on...

To hear the comments from the silent critic at home, who has finally opened his mouth. (Whoever knew the critic was actually following the show while acting busy on the mobile and laptop!😲)

So now she will romance the guy in Pakistan..then she will go to Afghanistan and romance a Taliban guy there? And then she will return back to this original guy and tell him she is sorry she forgot him?'..I can't believe I laughed out loud instead of greeting him with my well practised glare!😆

Another day, another episode...Trying hard to keep my objectivity...(I can only try...I have no idea if I will succeed...)..Another loose comment from the critic- So what happened to the house they were in? They were all after the house, right?'- Critic must be a typical trp audience who tunes in and out as he wants!😕😆

I decide to be honest. I confess that the story has gone so mad, even the lead has decided to quit...at which the critic gives me the most incredulous stare he has given me ever...😃I can read the meaning...I have become quite an expert in analysing every look and glare, courtesy a certain 'best' romance director turned horror director...🤔

And I wonder in horror..😲When will I stop! When will I say' Enough is enough'? Can I hope for the esteemed trp audience to make the decision for me, so the Season three will give way to Season Four in 3- 4 months..and I can hopefully catch some romance from the director who has returned from the HORROR'!🥱

Waiting for Seher...

If AsYa still remains alive after their death...Saahil is dead in the land of Living. Every day that I am made to endure Sanam 2 makes me thank someone for showing me how easy it is to quit! 👏No offence to Additi fans..she is a wonderful actress..and she is not the reason KV quit...however, she is the reason I'd want to quit..That... plus reincarnated Tanveer .. .The precap that ended with the suspense behind the veil...I don't even know what to say about the vision of the maker anymore!🤢

With great power comes great responsibility. Either someone knew not the power she wielded over the audience or she just didn't give a damn about responsibility.

Anyway, so long as there are people to watch she offers...let the show go on!🥱

Beautifully put.

I have only been part of the viewing audience for Season 2, and that I began in October. I can only imagine the horror of the viewers who saw their season 1 OTP (one true pairing) brutally murdered. It is hard to see Season 2 OTP being cheapened and watered down, and the lead actor leaving. Who knows what they will do with the Season 2 OTP.

This is really a horror show, run by someone who doesn't give a d**n what her audience wants and what her creations deserve (namely a HEA).

Heyy soup!!

I see Aahil on screen, and it feels like I'm saying goodbye goodbye goodbye, poor thing is stuck in limbo just waiting. Must be lonely onsets for KV, everyone is shooting somewhere else and he's shooting only with Additi and "Nazia"...

I hope he doesn't just fade away.

I felt like quitting several times now.

Why can't the writers write a role for a male lead that would make the actor wanna stay on board no matter what? Like SJ Does for all her roles.

Why does she misuse the male characters so badly.

Sage,

Gul is pathetic with her male leads...After the first few months, I mean. The day they confess their love, THEY ARE DOOMED!

I feel really bad for KV too...and so happy he is out of this mess soon. But this last month is going to be horrible for him. If the show does well, it will be because he shook Gul into action...still all credit to him.

I try to keep a positive attitude..But for the life of me, I cannot find anything at all in the show. Sanam is not Sanam anymore...Even as Jannat , there is no justification for her clinging on to any guy...Sanam never did that to even Aahil.

I leave it. If there are people for whom Saahil died five months back...let them enjoy it. May be the story makes sense to them now. We were teh fols who tagged along for five months, not knowing what the maker actually wanted.

KV will be replaced no doubt. I have no idea how the Shaad lovers will react when Saahil finally reunites. Which segment of the fandom exactly will be happy then?- The one that feels happy one couple was ruined worse than the other? I suppose this is what Gul deserves to cater to! 👏

What I don't understand is why they have to show Sanam so "clingy" with a guy she herself admitted she dosent remember? I mean she never even acted so clingy with her real husband? Sanam was never that "cling to a man" type? Maybe the hit on the head made her personality change as well? Into a pathetic clingy bimbo type maybe? How sad!


As for Aahil? He has nothing to do other than cry and drink poision Tropicana juice! Sanam2 still running the show in IM is the reason that SAHIL are seperated now. SHE managed to achieve what Tanveer could not. Splitting up SAHIL! Maybe this time for good! No wonder KV didn't want to do 3 more months of the same scenes over and over again with his Witch wife! I mean there is a limit to everything! They seperated SAHIL again, when they knew everyone waited 5 months for them to reunite!


Teejay was right! These writers once again ruined everything! Just when the focus was going to come back from revenge to the SAHIL relationship, they sent much married Sanam to Pakistan to romance a random stranger and break up the marriage of Mini Billi? Talk about being cursed? Looks like Asad and Zoya's kids can never outrun the curse of Tanveer!


Also this Mini Billi? I bet now she will rise up to be the lead of this season yet again! Between her and Sanam2 I can only imagine the ugliness of the vamp fest! Can we blame KV for wanting out of this? Instead of improving their script to tempt him to stay, they want to stubbornly just continue with their nauseating storyline! Honestly GK and her team of Uncreatives are just the most despicable and cold hearted people out there! They just DONT give a damn about the audience! I have never seen such gross disregard for your fans! They killed Rehan? Just like that, out of the blue! That decision alone should have shown how sickly sadistic these people are!


Now Aahil's fate hangs in the balance! I guess SJ as an actor is like a model with clothes! You know you wear what is given to you, you don't question the creative process? Even if the dress is ripping as you walk, you are told to "keep walking". Soon you realise this dress is in shreds and you either have to run away before it completely falls off and you are mortified in front of millions, or you just let them abuse your loyality and let you walk around in a ripped dress that is going to fall apart in a second!


THAT is the fate of this once great product! Now it's just a ripped dress waiting for the final blow before it will rip to shreds! These makers could have ended the SAHIL story next month on a high, and introduced the story of Seher! THIS story they are doing for a much married Sanam with a third angle, they could easily have done with Seher! In that case the third angle would have been "Misbah". Seher could have re-enacted the love story of her Ammi and Abbu with Mini Billi in tow! SAHIL would have walked off to their sunset, and eventually Seher will find true love with Shaad the Major!


But alas, God knows what they will do to this Shaad in the end! This story is stretched beyond reason. This chapter could have ended with logic. Now its just another drag fest that will eventually turn illogical and people will be forced to tune out! I sort of already have! I don't think I have it in me to emotionally invest in this story ever again! After Season 1, I watched without expectations and was pleasantly surprised. This time I have no expectations and I doubt any surprise will be pleasant! They have trolled the audience far too much and for WAY too long to get away with it this time!


I have great faith in the TRP aunties! I want them to teach Gul Khan a lesson she will never forget! That the consumer is KING! Someone with her arrogance needs to be brought down!

I've been holding off on judging Sanam's behavior, because I thought I'm being insensitive of her situation as an amnesiac or memory loss patient or whatever.

But really, even she comes off as not using the working parts of her brain. But I suppose I should try and understand, she hit her head and it's probably affecting her.😕

agree with each and every word of yours Mandy, you said it all, seriously I also want this show to shut with in a month, for once Gul Khan should get a good lesson. I have no patience to watch another dragfeast, I am glad now that KV left their nothing left for me to watch this crap. It is beyond me that how SJ manages to stay with this shitty tracks, it seems like she just does not care for the story, I understand Gk has give her a good break so she will never leave this show, but still it is amazing that she never questions the creatives? How can you just play the character like that, the way they have butchered Sanam is so 🤢 I just can not take this idiotic Jannat, Sanam was never like this, it is like , overnight new girl is born, how is it possible? Even when she has a memory loss, how she does not get any flashbacks, or any moemry? The whole dance was so idiotic, sorry but I just can not take this stupid track. SJ is very talented' and yes she got to play different characters here, but there is no closure to any of her characters, and it's amazing that it does not bother her at all. 😕

Your title said it all.

Romance to Horror, but the path is too painful.

I want to curse the inventor of TRP.

Soup for you 🤗
Gul, for you
Fool me once, Shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.

I've lost count of how many times the shame's on me. Every single time.

I was badly shaken with asya' death. I remember you held me through. But then I learnt my lesson. Never look for any bigger picture, there is none. Its all for the moment.
I almost got attached to Saahil, but better sense prevailed and held back. So, the pain is less.
I almost quit when Tanveer shot Seher in the precap, but CVs showed some sense and was held back yet again.

Sanam was butchered way back Soup, long back. I'm happy for this Jannat who can sing and dance, and smile and be happy. I want to see some happiness on my screen for being loyal for more than 2 years. I don't care who how or why, not anymore. I will use my brains for better purposes than QH from henceforth.

TBH, the pak track looks interesting. And I smiled watching Qh after a long long time.

p.s. Gul, don't push fans to the edge. Some may cross, some may turn back. If Soup quits QH, trust me, there won't be anyone to make sense of your nonsense writing.
